I've always considered myself more of a guitarist than a DJ, but here I've found myself needing to act as one for the sake of my film opening. Remember this song?
Well, as it turns out, after only 15 seconds of music, the drums come in. Yikes. Don't get me wrong, I love some good drums, but this would really ruin the tone we were aiming for in our opening. We're aiming for something more on the chill/ambient side. So, I'll try my very best to edit this into something a little longer that we can work with using Ableton Live.
After many trials and tribulations, I managed to near perfectly loop just the first 10 opening seconds and extend it to about 2 minutes. We don't necessarily need all this time, but it would be great to have more to play with as we continue along the post-production process.
I also elected to add some additional channels for delay and reverb as well to create a bigger, warmer sound than the original, as well as to make it less monotonous. Overall, now that the dull tone-establishing foundation has been completed, I can't wait to see how this track and the footage complement each other.
